Masses of the ground, orbitally and radially excited states of heavy-light mesons are calculated within the framework of the QCD-motivated relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. Both light (q=u,d,s) and heavy (Q=c,b)…
We consider mesons composed of light and heavy quarks and discuss the construction of the corresponding meson wave functions in soft-wall AdS/QCD. We specifically take care that constraints imposed by chiral symmetry breaking and by the…

We show that, by taking a bare mass spectrum with constant spacings for the quark-antiquark propagators, which is subject to considerable mass shifts from meson loops, one adequately describes a large variety of mesonic resonances, from the…

Masses of pseudoscalar and vector mesons, which are ground states of light or/and heavy quarks and antiquarks, have been calculated in the framework of an extended model of quasi-independent quarks with absolute uncertainties about 30 MeV.…
In the framework of the QCD string approach it is shown that the spin-averaged masses $\bar{M}(nL)$ of all low-lying light mesons are well described using the string tension $\sigma$ as the only parameter. The Regge slope $\alpha'_L$ and…

We compute the meson spectrum of an N=2 super Yang-Mills theory with fundamental matter from its dual string theory on AdS_5 x S_5 with a D7-brane probe. For scalar and vector mesons with arbitrary R-charge the spectrum is computed in…
The relativistic quantum string quark model, proposed earlier, is applied to all mesons, from pion to $\Upsilon$, lying on the leading Regge trajectories (i.e., to the lowest radial excitations in terms of the potential quark models). The…
We underline the general features of the constituent quark model and its success in the description of the spectrum and transitions of hadrons made up of light or heavy quarks, briefly compared to first principles of QCD. To show the…
A new suggestion for organizing the charged pseudo scalar mesons is presented. The simple Non-relativistic (NR) potential model employs a single value of the light quark mass and determines the potential coupling constant directly from the…
